Operational Emissions Framework

1. A method for generating a drilling plan for drilling a wellbore at a field, the method comprising: receiving data comprising one or more of: geological properties at the field; wellbore properties; drilling tool parameters; rig characteristics of drilling rigs; and working practices of a plurality of drilling crews; generating a plurality of candidate drilling plans for drilling the wellbore at the field; estimating one or more outputs for the plurality of candidate drilling plans based at least partially upon the data, wherein the one or more outputs comprise an amount of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated to drill the wellbore using respective candidate drilling plans of the plurality of candidate drilling plans; and presenting for selection one or more candidate drilling plans of the plurality of candidate drilling plans based at least partially upon the one or more outputs; and generating and transmitting a signal to cause a drilling apparatus to perform a wellsite action according to a selected drilling plan included in the plurality of candidate drilling plans, wherein the wellsite action includes at least one of initiating drilling at a selected location, varying a trajectory of the wellbore, varying a rate of penetration of a bottom hole assembly that is drilling the wellbore, varying a weight on a drill bit in the bottom hole assembly, varying a flow rate of a fluid pumped into the wellbore, or varying a composition of a fluid that is pumped into the wellbore.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the data is associated with at least one of one or more first previously-drilled wellbores at the field or one or more second previously-drilled wellbores at one or more other fields.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein one or more of the geological properties, the wellbore properties, the drilling tool parameters, the rig characteristics, and the working practices is different for each of the plurality of candidate drilling plans.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more outputs also comprise at least one of a cost to drill the wellbore using the one or more candidate drilling plans of the plurality of candidate drilling plans or a time to drill the wellbore using the one or more of the plurality of candidate drilling plans.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the rig characteristics comprise at least one of specifications of equipment on the drilling rigs, operating performance of the equipment, or the amount of GHG emissions generated by the equipment, and wherein the equipment produces at least a portion of the GHG emissions.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the working practices comprise times when the plurality of drilling crews runs one or more generators, a number of the one or more generators that the plurality of drilling crews runs at each time, or both, and wherein the one or more generators produce at least a portion of the GHG emissions.

7. The method of claim 1, further comprising generating a visual display of the plurality of candidate drilling plans, the one or more outputs, or both.
